This is a question Work Experience

We've got a work experience kid in for a couple of weeks and he'll do anything you tell him to... He's was in the server room most of yesterday monitoring the network activity lights - he almost missed his lunch till we took pity on him.

We are bastards.

How bad was your first experience of work?

work experience: duration 4 hours
we've had several work experience thicko's here, but there was one who topped them all. we're a computer shop (or at least were at the time) and did our own assembly. so this 18 yo kid doing some IT course (which included assembling a computer) walked in, right on time... now, we're not complete bastards so we gave him an actual job to do... nothing hard... just format a couple of hard drives and install windows on it. 3 hours later we check up on the kid's progress... he'd spent 3 hours trying to correctly spell 'format c:'

he was kicked out the door an hour later, with advice to go and find another line of work.
